I'd always wanted (7) (go) to Italy and visit Rome, the Vatican, Florence, and see all the magnificent art there - and I wasn't disappointed! It's worth (8) (learn) (9)(speak) a bit of Italian before you go. I managed (10) (see) quite a lot, but there was so much to see, and so many tourists! I can't stand (11) (queue) and some places were impossible - you must-have seen the crowds (12) (be pushed) through places like cattle. But, as I say, it was my dream destination and it was marvellous. I'd planned (13) (go) to Venice, too, but didn't have time in the end.
